Bereiding

  1. Marinate the chicken

    • In a bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic, cumin, oregano, all purpose seasoning, thyme, smoked paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, black pepper and lime juice.
    • Add the chicken and rub the marinade all over, then set aside.
    Stap 1
  2. Air fry the chicken

    • Place the chicken in the air fryer basket and cook at 190 °C, flipping halfway through.
    • For extra crispy skin, finish skin-side up for the last few minutes, adding a couple of minutes more if needed while keeping an eye on it so the skin doesn't burn.
    Stap 2
  3. Soften the onion and garlic

    • Heat the olive oil and butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
    • Add the onion and cook until soft and translucent.
    • Stir in the garlic and cook until fragrant.
    Stap 3
  4. Toast the rice

    • Add the rice and stir to coat it in the oil and aromatics.
    • Toast for a minute or two until the grains look glossy.
    Stap 4
  5. Simmer the rice

    • Pour in the broth and water, then add the lemon juice, lemon zest, oregano, dill, thyme, salt and black pepper.
    • Bring to a boil, then lower the heat, cover and simmer until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender.
    • Remove from the heat and let it rest covered.
    Stap 5
  6. Finish and serve

    • Fluff the rice with a fork and stir through the chopped parsley.
